Past midnight, the kids are sound asleep. Not even up for a game tonight, just sortof browsing, not really tired. Typical, I wake up only after midnight, and there's nothing to do. Well, that's what you have yahoo messenger for. I like the design better than MSN messenger, only problem is almost allt the chatfriends i have use MSN, and there isn't even an easy way to have yahoo search my address books for possible yahooers, or at least i have not been able to find that setting. (And no, i don't want to chat with just anyone, not that desperate, i prefer my friends). Luckily there's Helga from Brasil to keep me company and beat me in pool. Yes, the games actually work and qre quite fun to discover. Again a new thing coming through the wires. At least to our apartment in Lauttasaari.
Saw a good movie tonight on FST digital (finally some use of the expensive rented box). Pizza King from Denmark (1999) See http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0170407/.
It is true that there are some stereotypes in there, but not more than usual, and the story is good. Well, 'nuff said, i will try to get some sleep before the kids wake up...

For years i felt like i belonged to some other place. I was born and grew up in Göteborg, on the west coast of Sweden. My father is Swedish, my mother is Finnish. I grew up with my mother, and i always identified with her Finnish roots. Every summer we went to Finland, i learned some (not much) Finnish, and felt like i belonged there. Turning 20 i decided to move there. I went "home", or so i thought. I quickly discovered that they did not much care for me there. My family relations there were not especially happy to see me, nor did they keep much in touch. The swedish speaking minority was not very open, to put it mildly. I thought we would through a common language be able to communicate, but i soon found out that there was not much in common there. In short, it would take years to adapt. Hence i have done exactly that, and found a place for me. Now having lived in Helsinki for close to 18 years i consider it "home". But as i walk these streets i realise i am no

Late at night. Again. All the others are asleep. Worn out from a tough week. Me, I eat muesli and watch garbage TV. We just got two more channels in our DIGIbox package. Yihaa. More rubbish. Read yesterday that the water tower might actually become a café. That would be cool our island lacks a good café. Apart from Mutteri, which is (smoky but) nice, we don't have any cafés with personality here. Only generically branded ones, and they suck. If only i had a decent digicam i could prove it to you. As it is you have to take my word for it.
